Camera Cheapest GoPro setup for biking and trekking

Adept
Planning to get a GoPro camera, preferably the cheapest available, which will have decent photo and video capability but will lack connectivity options mostly.

Amazon.in had a GoPro going for Rs 11799 a few days ago, now it's 15800 :(

Also, which mount to get best video from biking or trekking? A chest mount ?

Don't know much about GoPro, if anyone has any experience please suggest.
 
I don't know much about this kinda camera. But the videos I saw of the bikers doesn't seem like a chest mount, but head mount.

Earlier there was a discussion about go pro like camera. About handful of guys were discussing, they could help you. You can scroll down and find that thread, it's still in the first page.

If you have anyone coming down from the US you can order one from Amazon US. You can go for the Hero 3+ Black(around 160$-200$) or Silver ( 240$-299$).
The Hero 3+ Silver ended up being the best VFM GoPro for my requirements. The Hero 3+ Silver can
I) Record FHD video upto 60 FPS , 720P upto 120 FPS and still camera captures at 10 MP .
II) Has builtin wifi and can be controlled using GoPro mobile app
III) Can be used to upto 197 feet deep.

Coming to the mounts part , you will probably need to purchase mounts separately from amazon.in. An all-in-one mount kit costs around 2.8k which includes helmet mounts, chest mounts etc. Also you will need to purchase a good Class 10 memory card of 32 GB/64 GB based on your requirements

Here is a better more detailed comparison between the 3
